Lyrics Hunters & Collectors – Angel Of Mercy
Text:
Every time I see you it’s so much better than the time before
You seem to be improving… when you turn on the charm
It’s impossible to ignore
Yeh I suppose that means you’re getting older
All those friends and relations… everyone must have a place
For a guarantee of friendship
Rule of thumb ain’t good enough any more
Oh we shared our secrets, we had a common foe
And when you changed your mind, you always let me know
Somehow we were always on the right side of wrong
And when the lines were drawn
You were an angel of mercy
You were the one that I used to believe in
You were an angel of mercy
Now the tables have turned
And I can see right through you
You made it look so easy, yeah you were always right
From tenderness to treason you faded out of sight
Behind a veil of sophistication, you looked so good
But now the party’s over I know I should have understood
That it’s a crime to be too easy and it’s a crime to be too glad
So now I’ve cut my losses it doesn’t feel so bad
So if I try to reach you by telling you a lie
It’s just another long goodbye
You were an angel of mercy
You were the one that I used to believe in
You were an angel of mercy
Now the tables have turned
And I can see right through you
Every time I see you it’s so much better than the time before
You seem to be improving… when you turn on the charm
It’s impossible to ignore
You were an angel of mercy
You were the one that I used to believe in
You were an angel of mercy
Now the tables have turned
And I can see right through you
Repeat
